Should **** really be unfiltered?

[Hazza]

Well I can say *** which means exactly the same thing, and I doubt anyone cares... Well, they haven't in the past but I bet they will now I've pointed it out. I don't think it should be unfiltered, since it's offensive to users. Words like **** shouldnt be unfiltered imo either. There's some words which would be alright to unfilter but it's the fact that some people are immature in using these words, which puts the whole filtering issue into something of a doubt. I'd much rather prefer it if you could turn off the filter...

That's going Habbo'ish lol, but I'm sure you could find a hack/script in VBulletin Forums.

I believe the filter should be there for all words or not there at all.

If bitches or bitch is filtered than ***** should be too.

*REMOVED* should be unfiltered. One reason being my dog is one and when people call you a *REMOVED* they don't mean it seriously, because lets face it, when *REMOVED* is used, it's not offensive as it's just not an offensive word.


The word '*****' should stay unfiltered you may have *****ed your finger on a thorn.

[Slowpoke]

Yes but surely if one word is unfiltered and the other isn't which both have the same meaning they either be both filtered or unfiltered.

well if you're getting picky then we may aswell bring the issue of Piss back up.. which would,

(a) mean another pointless debate
(b) you possibly losing your forum name

you know aswell as i do that ***** & piss are hardly offensive. in my opinion, there are a few more words that should be unfiltered but we'll have to wait and see.

Yes it should be. Piss also should.

If you read the thread Piss actually says he chose the name because he could but believes it should be filtered also they are changing their forum name.

How is this pointless? people are offended now by a picture of 2 fingers being stuck up and thats less offensive than ***** or piss. They have to remove all words from the filter and let mods do the job or they need to be stricter. Having a few people decide what THEY think is offensive and not offensive is silly as we all see things differently.
There needs to be a filter on or off for each user and then the filter as strict as poss. I would of course have the filter off out of choice but its not nice to see swearing all over and should folloew the habbo filter as it used to until people thought it a good idea to change that.
Ever thought not using the filter quite strictly is just another reason for habbo to ignore HX as official?

I'm all for that but is it even possible with vBulliten?

Be good if it was, they should enable it tonight so then all my infractions could get reverted and I could have BlueMoon back! Sick!

Not officailly but maybe there is a hack? if not is there a place to request a hack? I would not think its that difficult to do.

If people did not swear all over the filter would never be needed but when you can avoid it easily by inserting a . etc is there really any need for it on at all?

Some of us think certain words should be filtered and others dont want them filtered which causes alot of issues like these. The rules need altering to stop having these grey areas. It seems people ask for the place to be more easy going but they alter the wrong things and ignore alot of the other issues brought up.
